Precipitation in Falkenberg falls quite evenly throughout the year, so there is no clearly defined rainy or dry season. A characteristic feature of the local climate is not so much the amount of precipitation, but its frequency—rainy days occur regularly in almost every month.

The wettest periods are considered to be late summer and mid-autumn. August and October are the leading months for precipitation, with an average of 4 mm each and up to 18 rainy days.

When planning a trip to Falkenberg, it's important to account for the changeable coastal climate. The key principle when packing is layering. Even in summer, evenings can be cool, so a light t-shirt should be paired with a sweater or fleece. The main element of your wardrobe at any time of year should be a waterproof and windproof jacket. The weather here is often rainy, with many overcast days, so reliable protection from moisture and wind will make your walks around the city and the coast much more comfortable. Don't forget a sturdy umbrella and comfortable, preferably waterproof, shoes for long walks.

Your luggage will vary depending on the season. For the summer months (June–August), when average temperatures hover around 16-17°C, t-shirts, light trousers, or shorts are suitable, but definitely bring some warm items for evening walks. In winter (December–March), temperatures fluctuate around zero, so you'll need a warm winter jacket, hat, scarf, and gloves. During the shoulder seasons of spring and autumn, the weather is particularly unpredictable. The best solution is to combine several layers: for example, a t-shirt, sweater, and jacket that can be easily added or removed as the temperature changes throughout the day.
